Water temperature, salinity, and sound speed data collected by CTD and XBT from the R/V Falkor in the NW Hawaiian Islands 2014-03 to 2014-06 (NCEI Accession 0137765)

Physical parameters (water temperature, salinity, and sound speed) were measured as high-resolution profiles at select locations and times using CTD and XBT instruments on the R/V Falkor geophysical mapping cruises FK140307 and FK140502 during 2014-03-07 to 2014-04-11 and 2014-05-02 to 2014-06-06, respectively. The CTD was a Sea-Bird Electronics 911plus/917plus to a maximum depth of 1000 m and the XBTs were Sippican, Inc. Deep Blue Expendable Profiling Systems to a maximum depth of 760 m. The CTD data are available in the Sea-Bird "cnv" text files and the XBT in NetCDF (COARDS/WOCE).

本数据集采集了物理参数（水温、盐度与声速）的高分辨率剖面数据。数据分别于2014年3月7日至2014年4月11日、2014年5月2日至2014年6月6日期间，通过Falkor号研究船（R/V Falkor）的FK140307与FK140502地球物理测绘航次，在选定的站位与时间点，使用温盐深仪（CTD，Conductivity Temperature Depth）与抛射式温盐深仪（XBT，Expendable Bathythermograph）完成采集。其中，温盐深仪为海鸟电子（Sea-Bird Electronics）911plus/917plus型设备，最大测量深度可达1000米；抛射式温盐深仪为西皮肯公司（Sippican, Inc.）Deep Blue型抛射式剖面测量系统，最大测量深度可达760米。温盐深仪数据以Sea-Bird专用cnv文本文件格式存储，抛射式温盐深仪数据则采用遵循COARDS/WOCE标准的NetCDF格式存储。
